My name is Cathey DeLisle and I was born in North Carolina. My husband and our many dogs made the trek to Missouri several years ago and I set up shop in my very 'rustic' studio behind my house.
I have been drawn to the natural beauty of Missouri ever since my father and I traveled through here way back in the 70's. The landscape and wildlife here offer lots of inspiration.
My pottery is hand-thrown, hand-built and many times altered. I am forever learning new techniques and my work is constantly changing and evolving. I enjoy sculpting with clay even more. I am self taught and I think this has helped me to develope my own personal style. Experimenting with different colors and firing methods keeps the work very exciting. I am very fortunate because my pottery and sculptures have been received so well.
My work is currently available at several galleries throughout country. I am also a founding member of Women Artists of the Midwest (WAM).
